I also hyphenated and am using my maiden name at work. I went to social security and DMV, but I didn't change anything else (bank, credit cards, etc.), so although I am two steps ahead, I think I may actually be worse off legally, b/c now things are inconsistent. Long story short, I feel your pain.

I did some CC's, SS#, work stuff (insurance, benificiaries (sp), professional liscense, tax forms, 403B etc), DMV, dr offices (as I went to them), But there are still many cc's, the deed to the house, the mortgage and student loans.

It becomes a pain when everyone wants a fax. i don't have a fax machine and it really a pain.

Do you have to go to SS-- I thought you can do stuff online or mail it in?

Man, I have no energy to do this stuff..
